Never seen before.
I have never seen a sandhill crane sitting on the nest. I was lucky to have spotted this bird, even though the nest is many hundreds of feet away.

Sandhill Cranes are back.
I was able to watch this crane wading and feeding in the meadow while his mate is sitting on the nest.

A magical place.
I spent an hour at the river today with my sweet Maggie. I can always take off her leash. She stays close to me all the time. She has absolutely no hunting sense, so no problem her running after squirrels.

Landing approach!
Two Ospreys landed on this tower. Several years ago they had a permanent nest on this structure. But the tower was repaired and built larger, chasing the birds away.

Osprey power!
At the nature study area in Stony Creek Metropark on Inwood Road I noticed the pair of Osprey I have photographing many times and always near or on this Power Tower. This pair has successful raised many chicks over the years and often in the nest they had built on top of the tower.
